So today is my birthday. I am 31 now. Notexactly a ground shaking age to be at. I get no special new legal capabilities. It is not a landmark age like 30 or 40. It is a nice ordinary run of the mill birthday. I always get a bit introspective on birthdays. Another year has gone by and how different are you?
Usually that is a depressing question. For most folks I gather so at least I am not alone in that. Truth is people dont change a whole lot from when they are kids. I mean I have learned hard lessons and had some changes but I am still the kid went from being a hermit to not knowing when to shut up. Real changes are painful to make. I changed my attitudes towards work in a painful manner, being unemployed and homeless did that one for me. My priorities changed when my father died as well. The violent temper I had in my youth also took some painful changes in my life to break.
So I am 31 and am I any different from when I was 30. Maybe a bit. Overall I guess i am learning to be a bit more comfortable with being me. I at least know my flaws and find them managable. I am a bit heavier than I would like to be. I am still an arogant ass at times without meaning to be. I still dont know how to deal with compliments, but over all I am a good person or I would like to think I am.
Oh well enough self indulgent rambling. Let me just add I am pleased to call many people good friends. My friends keep me sane and happy even in some of the most trying times of my life. So thanks to all of you for another year of helping to get me through.
Now to go have choclate cheese cake.

My song for you...
And now You're even Older
And Now You're Even Older
And Now You're Even Older
You're older than you've ever been
And now you're even Older
And now you're Older Still...
